Luna Tales
THE CHALLENGE: Book it to the Moon
Solar System
Develop an interactive app for children that uses smart phone and tablet sensory to locate the Moon (any time of the day, even below horizon), which unlocks current lunar data (phase, distance, etc), and then presents the user options for reading a "Moon" related story, view space agency photos and videos, and/or fun facts about the Moon. The goal of this challenge is edutainment and raising awareness about lunar missions around the world.
Explanation
We aimed to create an app where kids could interact with the device to explore the moon.
